I need to replace my Year 2002 SC430's High-Pressure Power Steering Hose. Seems like no one carries that part "after-market". Maybe it is just expensive or unique ... but I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions other than pay $650 at the Dealer. I love my Dealer ... but $650 is breaking me.
Thanks!

(P.S. As a quick side note ... it's easy to Google and get results that say "We stock High pressure Power Steering Hoses for Lexus SC430" ... but Google is just repeating the keywords I type in. I have called several and no luck.

if you take the hose to a hydraulic manufacturer that can make a new hose from your existing fitting. Sorry I am from Australia so I don't know the companies in US.

I've done this for my SC400 in the past.

I just took a look at the part. It's very complicated, high precision, with several different angles, bends, clamps and insulators. Chances of finding an aftermarket supplier let alone this specific part are very slim if not impossible.

Thanks both of you. Maybe I will have it removed, THEN see if a Hydraulic shop can fix/repair the leaking section ...
